e4c064728c iwlwifi: remove key information during device restart
When there is a firmware error or the firmware is reloaded for some other
reason we currently clear all station information, including keys
associated with them. A problem is that we do not clear some other
information regarding keys that are not stored in the station structs.

The consequence of this is that when the device is reconfigured after the
firmware reload we can, among other things, run out of key indices.

This fixes:

92b50c4b5b mac82011: Allow selection of minstrel_ht as default rc algorithm
Allow selection of minstrel_ht as default rate control algorithm. At
the moment minstrel_ht can only be requested by the driver code but
not selected as default in make menuconfig. Fix this by using
minstrel_ht when minstrel was selected as default and minstrel_ht
is available.

This change won't affect legacy devices as minstrel_ht falls back to
minstrel in that case.

f860d526eb ath9k: fix TSF after reset on AR913x
When issuing a reset, the TSF value is lost in the hardware because of
the 913x specific cold reset. As with some AR9280 cards, the TSF needs
to be preserved in software here.

Additionally, there's an issue that frequently prevents a successful
TSF write directly after the chip reset. In this case, repeating the
TSF write after the initval-writes usually works.

This patch detects failed TSF writes and recovers from them, taking
into account the delay caused by the initval writes.

e22557f2e3 rt2x00: Fix antenna initialization
Legacy driver indicates that BBP1_TX_ANTENNA must be set
to 0 for TXPATH values of 1 and 3. So the previous statement
that nothing should be done for TXPATH = 3, is false.

Furthermore, remove the false BBP3_RX_ANTENNA initialization
when TXPATH is 1 for PCI and SOC devices. This field will always
be overridden in the next switch statement, making this initialization
bogus. History of this line indicates it was there from the beginning,
and was once caught as typo. Instead of replacing the line with the
correct line, the correct line was added...

fdb8725122 rt2x00: fix beacon reset on rt2800
When an interface is removed the according beacon entry should be reset.
The current approach to only clear the first word is not enough to stop
the device from sending out the beacon, hence resulting in beacons being
sent out for already removed interfaces.

Fix this by invalidating the entire TXWI in front of the beacon instead
of only the first word.

Also clear all beacons during startup in the same way.

For the Master mode case, we initialized the BSSID as the MAC

Hardware crypto to break in Master mode when receiving frames

This is safe for STA mode since the BSSID will be initialized

value later when the device associates.

78c4653a22 ath9k: fix retry count for A-MPDU rate control status reports
The 'bf_retries' field of the ath_buf structure was used for both
software retries (AMPDU subframes) and hardware retries (legacy
frames). This led to a wrong retry count being reported for the A-MPDU
rate control stats.
This patch changes the code to no longer use bf_retries for reporting
retry counts, but instead always using the real on-chip retry count
from the ath_tx_status.
Additionally, if the first subframe of an A-MPDU was not acked, the tx
status report is submitted along with the first acked subframe, which
may not contain the correct rates in the tx info.
This is easily corrected by saving the tx rate info before looping over
subframes, and then copying it back once the A-MPDU status report is
submitted.
In my tests this change improves throughput visibly.

occurs, this is the 2.4 GHz band and uses the 0x420a (CCK, 1 Mbps) rate. In 5 GHz
beaconing mode, this rate will prevent beacons from being sent and any other

This bit need to be set for both RTS/CTS or CTS-to-self protection, if
CTS-to-self is used, then uCode will  check the RXON_FLG_SELF_CTS_EN
status. Change the name from TX_CMD_FLG_RTS_CTS_MSK to TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK
to match the behavior of the bit setting.

Also update comments to reflect which hardware uses which of the TX command
flags.

062bee448b iwlwifi: set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK in tx_flag
When building tx command, always set TX_CMD_FLAG_PROT_REQUIRE_MSK
for 5000 series and up.

Without setting this bit the firmware will not examine the RTS/CTS setting
and thus not send traffic with the appropriate protection. RTS/CTS is is
required for HT traffic in a noisy environment where, without this setting,
connections will stall on some hardware as documented in the patch that
initially attempted to address this:

    iwlwifi: Fix throughput stall issue in HT mode for 5000

    Similar to 6000 and 1000 series, RTS/CTS is the recommended
    protection mechanism for 5000 series in HT mode based on the HW design.
    Using RTS/CTS will better protect the inner exchange from interference,
    especially in highly-congested environment, it also prevent uCode encounter
    TX FIFO underrun and other HT mode related performance issues.

For 3945 and 4965, different flags are used for RTS/CTS or CTS-to-Self
protection.

d1e89f37de iwlwifi: fix multicast
commit 3474ad635d
Author: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
Date:   Thu Apr 29 04:43:05 2010 -0700

    iwlwifi: apply filter flags directly

broke multicast. The reason, it turns out, is that
the code previously checked if ALLMULTI _changed_,
which the new code no longer did, and normally it
_never_ changes. Had somebody changed it manually,
the code prior to my patch there would have been
broken already.

The reason is that we always, unconditionally, ask
the device to pass up all multicast frames, but the
new code made it depend on ALLMULTI which broke it
since now we'd pass up multicast frames depending
on the default filter in the device, which isn't
necessarily what we want (since we don't program it
right now).

Fix this by simply not checking allmulti as we have
allmulti behaviour enabled already anyway.
